Group Fitness Policies

Please note our group fitness policies:

Participants will not be admitted to the class 5 minutes after the warm-up has begun.

Appropriate workout attire is required at all times unless otherwise noted.

Participants are encouraged to monitor their own workout intensity and take water breaks frequently.

Participants are responsible for returning all equipment used during a class to the appropriate storage space.

Patrons are asked not to jump rope, lift weights, or stretch in the studios while fitness classes are in progress.

Personal items should be placed in lockers prior to participation. If there are no lockers available, personal items may be placed at the back of the studio, along the wall.

To ensure the safety of participants, class size may be limited.

The instructor reserves the right to ask a participant to leave should these policies not be followed.

Recognized groups on campus may reserve the Studio for fitness related activities when Fitness
Center programs are not using the space. Please contact the Fitness Center Manager at
dvanvierssen@virginiawestern.edu for
reservation requests.
